Judith: using my back door involves sidling past the bins and down a muddy, weedy side lane, taking the stick prop from the rotten side gate and squeezing through an even narrower bit of path by the front stairs. All that and you don't even get snow at the end! Then again, you don't get evil relatives trying to suck the magic out of you, either.

L. Lee Lowe: Apart from BLACK JUICE, there is only my previous collection of short stories, WHITE TIME. That's coming out in the US in March, but I don't think there are plans at present to bring it out in the UK - I think Gollancz/Orion only contracted for BLACK JUICE.
